Says the Atlanta Constitution:
The Augusta Chruniele, has a severe

but when to that is added an early
prospect of tho iioinplction of the
Northeastern and Elberton roads,
the Clirwiwle Poo-boo- right out.
Both of these branches, it says, will
draw trade away from Augusta to
Atlanta. Quite likely. Trade is apt
to go where the best facilities are of
fered. The Chruniele is right when
it says that Augusta has no monop
oly of trade. It must light for what
it gets hereafter, and not sleep or
theorize over the subject. Atlanta
proposes to sell goods ail over the
territory that Augusta claims as its
own.
Fetnalf* Collw**
Georgia is an old State. She knows
or should know her own wants. She
should know how many of her sons
arid daughters will require each year
schooling of a superior grade, and
provide for such educational wants.
We believe nil this has been foreseen
and provided for. We believe that
the Suite contains ample educational
facilites for her own children, but we
also believe that tile people of Geor
gia do not properly appreciate our
provisions of tit is nature. This is nei
ther patriotic nor economical. Per
haps one hundred young men and
young women are sent out of the
State each year to be educated in the
institutions of States to the north of
ns. This cripples our own excellent
colleges. It, deprives them of that
amount of sup]>ort which is necessa
ry to the highest degree of success
and efficiency. Anil while our peo
ple are thus weakening their own in
stitutions they are spending a large
sum of money in other States that will
not return to them even iu part.
When we have excellent, sclmols
and colleges -confessedly excellent
when too, it costs more to educate
children abroad then at home, why is
it that an exodus of our young peo
ple is allowed to take place every fall?
The policy is certainly a suicidal one.
Our colleges and schools will lapse
from their high standing aud present
prosperity if such a course is main
tained. What citizen wishes the
doors of Georgia’s educational insti
tutions forever closed? And yet the
man who sends his children out of
the State to be educated, is pursuing
a course that will achieve as much if
not speedilv stop[>ed. It would boa
discredit to the State if she could not
provide as good colleges as Virginia
or anv other State cart. We have
such schools, we repeat; but through
the false dictates of fashion or some
other inconceivable freak, the people
of the State do not support them as
they should. Let Georgia s sons and
daughters be educated in Georgia.
No State has better schools, and no
people Reserve patronage more than
our own do. —Atlanta ConxtUution.

X VISIT TO THE PAItISIAU OObOOTH.V -THE
CATACOMBS.
The Parisian correspondent of the
London Globe, writing of a visit to
the catacombs of Paris, says:
The other day the members of the
Geographical Congress were invited
to explore subterranean Paris, or as
much of It as is generally thrown
open to the public, as too much time
would be absorbed were t he whole of
these avenues and roadways to be
visited, besides which there Is a ocr
ain danger of being lost, or, as fre
luently happens, a portion of the
noting falling In and crushing the
exploring party. Reasons such as
these have caused the visit to be
limited to tho roadways which lie
between the Barriers d’Enfertind the
galleries which contain the bones of
those who were interred in the dif
ferent Parisian burial grounds, be
fore the authorities had restricted
he burial of the dead to certain
cemeteries, and which hud remained
in the cloisters mid old churchyards
before the Paris improvements were
tommenced.
The time fixed for the visit was 1
p. m. , but. fully half an hour before
that time the intending visitors had
Assembled at tho Octroi of the Bar
riers d’Enfer, fearing lest they might
miss the treat they had been looking
forward to. Each person had been
requested to provide himself with a
tandleand a box of matches, but the
qieeulative urchin who never misses
a chance of turning a penny, had
heard ol'the projected visit, and the
itinerant marehaad de btmijies was at
tiis post. Gandies fitted to a wooden
handle, with abroad cardboard guard
to prevent the grease from dripping
m the clothes of the person carrying
it, were being hawked about; boxes
of matches seemed at a premium, and
lescriptions of tho catacombs were
largely purchased by the foreigners
who were assembled, waiting for one
of the municipal engineers who was
to conduct them through the laby
rinths of that curious place, entered
at tho ominously named Burriero
d’Enfer. The members of the Geo
graphical Congress had mustered in
force, aud they were accompanied by
i number of ladies.
While waiting, the conversation
reminded one of the eonfusion of
tongues at the Tower of Babel. Rus
sian, Italian, Spanish and English
were being spoken, and the peculiar
American accent could be dist inguish
ed, as the manners and customs of
different countries, to tln* generality
of people almost unknown, were dis
cussed. The fair sex seems to be
well represented tit the Congress,
and had Mrs. Jellaby been there, she
would have learned how far her mis
sion might be further extended, and
how much the traveler and explorer
would hail with delight tho ora when
flannel vests will replace cocoanut
and palm oil, with which it is the
nature of some people to bosmeut
themselves.
As one o’clock sounded, the signal
to get. ready was given, match-boxes
were looked to, the caudles were firm
ly gripped, am! some ladies, very sen
sibly, pul on water-proof cloaks,
drawing the hoods over their bonnets
so as to guard against the moisture,
which, after the late heavy rains we
have been having, filtered through
tho roots of the catacombs. Can
dles were lighted, and one by one the
two hundred visitors assembled, dis
appeared down the winding staircase,
with its ninety-two deep stops,
which leads to the vaults below.
Round and round, turning giddily,
until at the end of five minutes a
welcome voice announced that, the
head of the procession had arrived
on the level ground llftv-eight feet
below tin* street above. The 200 flick
ering candles gave a weird aspect as
they illuminated, like so many nills
o’-thc-wlsp’ the dark chalk stone roof
of the vault through which the party
look Us wav. The water was trick
ling down i lie walls, or dripping
from tlic fungus-covered roof, to the
eminent discomfiture of those who
wore new lulls or light, trowsers,
while here and there the gleam to
the candles showed some patch of
water, the endeavors to avoid which
were ludicrous. Home one would see
a pool, make a jump to avoid it,
and land in another perhaps deep
er, sending up a shower of water
which made the candles spit and
splutter, and caused those who had
been sprinkled inclined to use strong
language. But as none escaped some
of these mishaps, as the sprinkler
often got sprinkled in return, good
humor soon prevailed, and every one
at last got careless, plodding along
without heeding the miniature ponds
under foot. On the wall, inscrip
tions bearing the names of the streets
under which the party were passing
showed the progress being made,
while to the right and left were gal
leries, into which no one was allowed
to penetrate, as iu some eases the
roof had fallen in, and in others
fears were entertained that the heavy
rains might have rendered the galle
ries unsafe.
After walking for about twenty
minutes the party halted ; the ladies
were invited to go to the front, the
men to bring up the rear. A few min
utes more and a door was readied,
over which a notice had been placed
saying that no smoking was allowed,
and that no one was permitted to
touch the bones, although one would
fancy that the latter part, of the pro
hibition was superfluous except in
the raise of enthusiastic phrenolo
gists. The procession reached the
funeral hail, or vast ossuary, where
I the bones of the lead have been ar
ranged in horribl • order, with some
idea of ornament. Hkulls yellow with
time, some looking like polished ma
hogany, others like parchment or
ivory, grinned in a ghastly mariner at
the passers-by ; thigh and arm bones
seemed ready for the ineilati/m a Iu
rate, * to join in Holbein’s “Lance of
Death;’’ and many wondered if at
the hour of midnight some strange
scenes might not be seen ill such a
charnel-house.
Who could have picked out the
skull of some Torick from among the
thousands of jawless omniums which
were piled up and arranged in a va
riety of devices, or have distinguished
between the bones which, according
to the inscriptions over them, had
come from the Cemetery of the Inno
cents, from the cloisters of Hairit Ho
norc, etc., places which iiave been
forgotten, and which the present gen
eration does not remember. Gn the
walls all kinds of philosophical in
scriptions have been traced, by the
hands of the workmen, no doubt, as
some of the anxious, intended to be
sublime, verge on the ridiculous, and
would excite a smile were it not for
the solemnity of the spot. Another
souvenir of the Commune was to be
found in a row of skulls and arm and
thigh bones, which an inscription
tells us once belonged to those who
COLUMBUS, GA., WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1875.
were entombed in the Church of tho
81. Laurel, but whose sepulchers were
violated liy tho Federal Insurrection
ists in 1871. On quitting this charnel
house the party retraced its steps,
returning to the spiral staircase by
which the descent had been made,
after a visit of an hour, during which
a distance slightly in excess of three
miles had been gone over. Up tho
steps out of tho dark and moist vault
smelling like the grave the daylight
was hailed with delight, and although
every one felt glad the visit, had been
made, every one was pleased it was
over. Stories hud been told of how
the Communists had been lost., how
their rotting bones are evon now to
he discovered when competent men
explore the subterranean passages
near Montrooge, ho that each stair
was mounted with a lighter heart,
and every one felt relieved when the
tran-door leading to the catacombs
had been closed.

From tho Cincinnati Trad© List.)
Probably the most curious pair of
human beings that have yet been
seen at the Exposition witnessed the
show on Monday night. They were
Chinamen, clad in flowing robes and
sandals, with the inevitable pigtail
done uj> in a double bow-knot at tho
back of their heads. A representative
of the Trade List, after following
them around for some time, came up
to them while they wore at a stand
still on the bridge in Floral Hall.
Tho following valuable and inter
esting conversation took place;
Reporter Hoy, John. What, do
you think of the show?
(Chinaman grins and shows Ids
teeth.)
Reporter tin a louder voice) 1 say,
John, it’s a big display, isn’t it?
Chinaman—Chow Hi likee Meliean
man show heap big.
Reporter—Good for you, Clioiv Hi.
Did you ever see anythnik as big as
tliis In China?
Chinaman Chow Hi likee Meliean
man show. Chow Hi likee Meliean
Billallen. Meliean man dollco heap
good Chinaman. Billallen brick.
He makoe more dollee.
Reporter—Well, what’s this got to
do with—-
Chinaman—Chow Hi not. aflaid

Rillailan. Washe closee Rillalleu.
Voice six times Rillalleu. Ho heap
great man. Makco dollee plenty
rice. Chow Hi likee white mini
talkee Lout Billallen.
And as Chow Hi began to unwring
his pigtail at. t.iiis interesting junc
ture and indulge in a series of evolu
tions that were strikingly suggestive
of familiarity with the sports of the
prize ring, the reporter concluded
that it was wrong to further molest
the son of Confucius, and according
ly departed.

A Man Who Does Not Lauuh. An
English traveller, Mr. Hartshorne,
gave tho British Association the other
day an account of the Weddas, a wild
tribe which lives in the interior of
Ceylon. These Weddas are about
five feet high, live on waterand roast
monkeys, and are, he reports, inca
pable of laughter. After trying every
way to make, their chief laugh, and
failing, lie asked, in amazement,
whether they ever laughed. “No,”
replied the Wodda; “why should we?
What is there to laugh at?”

Jacksonville, Fla., Sopt. 21. The

the .decision of Judge Archibald In
holding Harney Richard for trial.
Archibald says in effect that in his
opinion the evidence of a singlo ne
gro, whoso testimony was fully im
peached, is of greater value than the
positive testimony of twelve or more
white men of the highest standing
and respectability. Thcdeoislon has
outraged the entire community. It
was foreshadowed by tho presence of
Stearns, Dennis, Hicks, Walton, and
other Radicals in the city. Richard

MALARIA!
Read, Reflect and Act.
If one grain of Vaccine Virus, taken from tho
cow’s udder and kept dry for years, then mois
tened, and the keenest point of a Lancet flipped
in it and drawn gently on the arm, so as not to
draw tho blood, will so impregnate and chango
the entiro system as to prevent the party vac
cinated from taking the most loathsome dis
eases (small pox) for an entire life; again, If the
Celebrated Eucalyptus tree will change an unin
habitable malarial district into a healthy, salu
brious clime, by simply absorbing from the at
mosphere the poison malaria, why will not the
proper remedy, properly applied, neutralize and
destroy the poison, known as malaria, and thus
enable parties to inhabit malarial districts with
impunity?
Wo claim that there is such a remedy, and that
we have prepared it, and applied it, and proved
it in our Anti-malarial or Euchymial Belt—and
that persons who will wear this Belt may inhabit
the worst malarial districts without the fear oi
having any diseases arising from malaria; such as
Chills aud Fever, Billioua or Intermittent Fever,
Yellow Fever, Jaundice, Kularged Liver and
Spleen, Indigestion, Constipation aud Hem
orrhoids, and tha it will cure all the above dis
eases, except the worst cases of Billious and Yel
low Fever.
This is called an Anti-malarial or Euchymial
Belt, as it corrects tlie humors of the oody aud
produces a healthy action, invigorating the sys
tem, aud thus enabling it to per.orm its various
duties without fearing the effects of malaria in
the least.
It has been tried iu thousands of cases without
a failure.
They eau be obtained from the proprietors iu
any quantity at the Powell Building, junction of
Broad and Peachtree streets, Atlanta, Ga.
Price for a single Belt $3, or $5 with a guaran
tee that it will cure or the money refunded.

is stamped upon them.

Caution.—This Belt or Pad, like all articles of
merit, is being imitated by parties who ary try
ing to put up a worthless article, as there is not
a living person, besides ourselveß, that knows
the ingredients in it. We are the patentees, aud
have our Belt protected by a Trade Mark.
Sure Cure.—ln another column will be found
two remarkable certificates about the efficacy of
Drs. Willson k Love’s Malarial Belts. The diffi
culty in the way of using these belts is that they
are so simple that few can believe that there is
any virtue in them. When a patient is told to
use one he is very much like Naamau when told
that, to cure his leprosy, ho had only to bathe in
the river Jordan. Hon. John E. Ward says that
during his stay in China, as Minister, these belts
were used with great as preventives of
cholera. We know a case where a lady had been
suffering with chills for more than a year, and
was finally Induced to adopt one of these belts.
She has not had a return of the chills since, and
she is fully persuaded that it is owing to the belt.
Dr. Willson’s terms are very fair—no cure, no
l>ay.
#rKcad the following certificates :
Atlanta, Ga., June 5, 1875.
Messrs. Love & Willson: Gentlemen—ln Aprl
last I was taken sick with regular Fever and
Ague, having it every alternate day. After it had
run on me for two weeks, I was induced to try
oue of your Anti-malarial belts; so I discarded all
medicine, aud simply wore one of your Belts, us
directed, and my Agiio became lighter each suc
cessive time thereafter for some three or four
times, when it left me entirely, with a good appe
tite and clear skin; and iu future, if 1 should ever
have a Chill or Ague, I would want one of your Pads,
and no physic. Wishing everybody that may be
ho unfortunate as to have Chills and Fever may
be fortunate enough to get one of your Belts,
I am, respectfully, etc.,
W. J. Wilson.
Atlanta, Ga., June 3, 1876.
Dhh. Love A Willson:
On the first day of December last I was taken
with Chills aud Fever iu Thomasville, Southwes
tern Ga., and was treated for the same by three
eminent physicians who were able to stop it only
for a few days at a time. It made such inroads
on my constitution that my physician pronoun
ced me to be in the first stages of consumption,
wh eu I accidentally met up with Drs. Love k Will
son’s Anti-malarial Belt, which has entirely cured
me. 1 have had but one chill since, aud that was
the first day alter putting it on. lam now iu as
good health us I ever was iu my lile, and think
this Belt a God-send to the afflicted.
J. M. Mathews.
Cannon House, Atlanta, Ga., June 4, 1875.
Some nine years ago I contracted malaria in
Savannah, Ga., from which I have suffered, at
times, ever siuce, until I met up with Drs. Love k
Willson’s Anti-malarial Belt some three months
ago. 1 have worn it continually, aud have had no
chill siuce, aud find my general health, which
lias been poor, much improved. I would recoin
tuend it to others suffering with malaria.

Macon, Ga., June 4, 1876.
Friend Hodgson: I received your letter of the
26th ult., off yesterday. I have boon off on a fish
ing excursion and just returned.
The people of this town don’t chill worth a cent
yet. I have sold two of the pads, and that 1 did
the very hour I first received them, one to one of
our conductors, and to Mr. Vaughn, a Clerk in
tho office. They both say that they tried Quinine
and other remedies, aud that they failed till they
put on the pad ; since then they have bad no more
Chills or Fever, and they recommend them to ev
erybody. ***** Alex. Mathews,
The above pads were sent for us by Dr. Hodg
son, who is addressed as above.
AnuKviLLK C. IL, 8. C., July 16.
Drs. Love Ii Willson, Atlanta, Ga:—Gentle
men—l have been a sufferer from chills and fever
for (19) nineteen years, and have uned.aU of the
popular remedies, but only had temporary relief
until about three months since, I was induced, by
your agent, Captain W. R. White, to wear one of
your “Anti-Marial Belts.” I have not had a chill
since putting it on. It has enabled me to look
alter my farming interest more closely, aud ex
pose myself to rain and sunshine more than for
nineteen years. It has been worth to me, in
feelings aud absolute results, not less than five
hundred dollars.
I cheerfully recommend it to all "shakers.”
Respectfully, etc.,
JAMES McCRARY.
Atlanta, Ga., August 7tb, 1876.
Dux. Love k Willson Dear Sirs—l have been
having chills, caused from living In a malarious
district, for seven years. During that time I
have taken ounces of Quinine, with which I have
usually checked them for a while, but they have
invariably returned as soon as I would leave off
the use of the medicine. Having taken Arse
nic and Htricbuine, aud nearly ovary chill
remedy I ever heard of. I procured, a mouth
siuce, one of your “Anti-Malarial Belts," which I
have worn, and during this time I have had only
one chili, which was brought on by being exposed
to night air ami getting wet. It has done me
more good than all the internal remedies put to
gether which I have taken in the past seven years.
I am very gratefully and respectfully yours,
WILLIAM CRENSHAW, Dentist.
